A rail for an aircraft floor includes an upper plate for supporting a set of floor panels covering the plate, and a lower stiffening structure. The rail is formed by a beam and by an anticorrosion protection. The beam is at least formed by a body made of a first material and defining the lower stiffening structure and an upper platform. The anticorrosion protection fully covers an upper face of the upper platform and forms therewith the upper plate of the rail, thus layered. The anticorrosion protection is at least formed by a protective sheet made of a second material that is more corrosion resistant than the first material and is selected from a metal and a fiber-reinforced plastic composite material. Such a rail exhibits good corrosion resistance at a moderate cost.
